* :17,25,30,34; 8:15; 9:9; 16:14,19 Nu 19:4
- seven times.
The number seven is what is called a number of perfection
among the Hebrews; and is often used to denote the
completion, fulness, or perfection of a thing.
* Le 14:16,18,27; 25:8; 26:18,24,28 Jos 6:4,8
VERSE 7

* Heb 13:11-13
VERSE 12
- without the camp. Heb. to without the camp.
This was intended, figuratively, to express the enormity of
this sin, and the availableness of the atonement. The
sacrifice, as having the sin of the priest transferred from
himself to it, by his confession and imposition of hands, was
become unclean and abominable, and was carried, as it were,
out of God's sight; and thus its own offensiveness was
removed, with the sin of the person in whose behalf it was
offered.
* Le 13:46 Nu 5:3; 15:35; 19:3
- the ashes.
* Le 6:10,11
- burn him.
* Ex 29:14 Nu 19:5 Heb 13:11
- where the ashes are poured out. Heb. at the pouring out of
the ashes.
VERSE 13
- the whole congregation.
This may refer to some oversight in acts of religious
worship, or to some transgression of the letter of the law,
which arose out of the peculiar circumstances in which they
were found, as in the case mentioned in 1 Sa 32 14:32, et seq.
The sacrifices and rites in this case were the same as in the
preceding; only here the elders laid their hands on the head
of the victim, in the name of all the congregation.
- through ignorance. See on ver.
* :1,2; 5:2-5,17 Nu 15:24-29 Jos 7:11,24-26 1Ti 1:13 Heb 10:26-29

VERSE 18
- upon the.
* :7
- and shall pour out.
The reason for pouring out the blood, which is so constantly
and strictly required by the law, was in opposition to an
idolatrous custom of the ancient Zabii, who "were accustomed
to eat of the blood of their sacrifices, because they
imagined this to be the food of their gods, with whom they
thought they had such communion, by eating their meat, that
they revealed to them future things."--Maimonides
VERSE 19

VERSE 22
- a ruler hath sinned.
Under the term {nasi,} that is, one preferred or elevated
above others, from {nasa,} to exalt, it is probable that any
person is meant who held any kind of political dignity among
the people; and it evidently means the head of a tribe as in
Nu 1:4, 16; 2 7:2. But the Rabbins generally understand it of
the prince of the great sanhedrin, who, when they were under
the regal form of government, was the king. A kid of the
goats was the sacrifice in this case; and the rites were
nearly the same as in the preceding, only the fat was burnt
as that of the peace offering. (ver. 26.)

{Am ha„retz;} that is, any individual who was not a priest,
